In a unique educational initiative, high school students from Hauts-de-Seine attended the trial of Samuel Paty’s assassination at the Paris courthouse. The project ‘Classes en audience’ allowed them to witness legal proceedings related to the 2020 attack carried out by Abdoullakh Anzorov. The students learned about courtroom procedures and the significance of the trial, fostering discussions on the impact of social media and teacher-student relationships post-tragedy. This experience is pivotal for those connected to the incident, enhancing their understanding of justice and democracy in the face of terrorism.
